Itraconazole, a P-Glycoprotein and CYP3A4 Inhibitor, Markedly Raises the Plasma Concentrations and Enhances the Renin-Inhibiting Effect of Aliskiren

Abstract: In a randomized crossover study, 11 healthy volunteers took 100 mg (first dose 200 mg) of the antifungal drug itraconazole, a P-glycoprotein and CYP3A4 inhibitor, or placebo twice daily for 5 days. On day 3, they ingested a single 150-mg dose of aliskiren, a renin inhibitor used in the treatment of hypertension. Itraconazole raised the peak plasma aliskiren concentration 5.8-fold (range, 1.1- to 24.3-fold; P < .001) and the area under the plasma aliskiren concentration-time curve 6.5-fold (range, 2.6- to 20.5-… Show more

“…Importantly, colchicine was also identified as the sole false negative of highly permeable BDDCS class 1 compounds that were P-gp substrates when predicting CNS exposure (24). Aliskiren and cefoperazone are poorly permeable and eliminated in the bile (39,40), although we initially classified them as extensively metabolized/highly permeable. We utilized aliskiren as an external validation compound in our model predicting when biliary elimination is the major route of elimination and adjusted its class to class 3 for further studies.…”

“…Aliskiren plasma and urine concentrations were quantified using an Applied Biosystems SCIEX Q Trap LC/MS/MS system (Sciex Division of MDS, Toronto, Ontario, Canada) [31]. Acebutolol served as an internal standard.…”

“…3,3',4',5,6,7,8-heptamethoxyflavone, tangeritin and nobiletin, have been shown to inhibit P-glycoprotein in vitro [44][45][46]. However, inhibition of the P-glycoprotein should increase, not decrease, the plasma concentrations of aliskiren [31]. Therefore, it appears unlikely that inhibition of the P-glycoprotein would play an important role in the interaction between orange juice and aliskiren.…”

“…We 8 considered that there would be no effect on the purity of the plasma membrane fraction 9 even if the pellet contained the cellular structures, because the obtained pellet was 10 subsequently homogenized by rotated strokes with a Potter-Elvehjem homogenizer and 11 nitrogen cavitation according to our previous report. 34 The isolated mouse intestinal 12 epithelial cells were homogenized by 15 up-and-down rotated strokes (1,000 rpm) of a 13 Potter-Elvehjem homogenizer in hypotonic buffer [10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 10 mM 14 NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and 1 % (v/v) protease 15 inhibitor cocktails (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, USA)]. The homogenates were 16 kept in ice for 30 min, then homogenized again with 20 up-and-down rotated strokes 17 (1,000 rpm) on ice, and finally subjected to nitrogen cavitation at 450 psi for 15 min at 18 4°C.…”
